Yuri how tall. Yuri Dud: biography, personal life, family, wife, children - photo. Family life of a famous blogger

Yesterday afternoon, Alexander Emelianenko was found guilty of rape and received 4.5 years in a general regime colony. the site pulls from the archive an interview with Emelianenko, which he gave us at the end of 2013 - the same year when one scandal after another erupted with his participation. After reading it, it will be a little easier to understand what kind of person he is.

Fight club in the Moscow district of Nagatino-Sadovniki. A pitch black BMW half a meter from the front door. Martial arts hall. Yorkshire terrier in a diaper and a fashionable jacket. Brunette with a smartphone. Well, Alexander Emelianenko is huge, coughing, in a gray tracksuit, barefoot. We sit on the mats and talk.

Almost the entire conversation, Emelianenko patiently answers questions, only once he glances sideways at my covered A4 piece of paper: “Listen, don’t you have too many questions there?”

A detail for those who will be interested in this for some reason: during the conversation, Alexander is absolutely sober.

- You have been making noise all year with scandals, but in the last few weeks you have hidden yourself.

– I didn’t make any noise with scandals. This organization in Tyumen, where the fight was supposed to take place, was noisy. And I was getting ready. Watch videos from the audience. In the morning - cross-country, in the afternoon - the gym, in the evening - the boxing gym. Day off – Sunday, Saturday – jogging and sauna.

- How did you feel all the time that you got into scandals?

– I felt great. This is the press. She first gives one piece of information, then gives a refutation.

- What did she deny? What of what was written about you was actually not true?

- All! Absolutely everything was wrong.

- A fight with a pensioner in a cafe - didn’t that happen either?

- Well, this is already a covered topic. I came to eat. There was a drunken, riotous group sitting there. I made a remark to be quieter. They looked at me and continued. I made a remark for the second time. He turned around and sent me away in plain text. I came up and asked: “Say it to my face.” They got up, grabbed chairs, and such a mess happened.

– On board the Moscow-Tyumen flight, you caused a drunken brawl.

- ITAR-TASS has already given a refutation - that I was sober, did not smoke, and behaved normally.

– The organizers of the “Legend” show said that you were not ready for the fight with Mirko Filipovic. Is this also not true?

- Yes, I was not ready. I was injured and warned them about it.

– What kind of injury did you have?

– It seems to me that it doesn’t matter.

“No one will believe you if you don’t tell me what kind of injury it is.”

- Shot finger. I was driving from training camp, walked into the front door, into the dressing room and saw a pistol in front of me. He grabbed the barrel. They shot, abandoned and ran away. Here you can look (extends his hand, his index finger is crooked on the bend).

– Was it a rubber bullet?

- Combat. I told the organizers: “I can’t fight with a shot finger.” They: “Fight.” How will I fight? I couldn't even squeeze it.

- How did the gun end up in the entrance? Were they waiting for you or someone else?

- Don't know. I didn't have time to ask.

– Was the gun pointed at you?

- So they were waiting for you?

- Apparently, me.

– Do you have any thoughts - why?

- Envious people, probably... I have no thoughts.

– To many successful people envy. But they don't try to shoot everyone.

– I don’t know what it is. This is not a question for me.

– Did you feel scared?

How can you not be scared when a gun is pointed at you?

- Reacted on time. So it’s gone.

– Did you go to the police?

- Yes, they are aware. But they did not initiate a case. Why? Don't know.

Change life

– What has given you the greatest pleasure in recent months?

- My lovely (turns to the brunette and smiles). She proposed to me. But I couldn’t refuse, hahaha.

– The last thing, for which you were ashamed?

“I’m not ashamed of anything.” I wouldn't want to change my life.

– I’ll explain his logic: you constantly make scandals, get into some pretty nasty stories – from the outside it looks like quite animal behavior.

- But that wasn’t the case. If it had been, believe me, I would have been in prison a long time ago.

Reflectors

– Why don’t you admit in any interview that you spent some time in prison in your youth?

– I didn’t go to jail.

– President of the St. Petersburg Sambo Federation Alexey Maly said recently: “We all remember that Alexander served time in his youth.”

- By what youth? And look: they also painted my tattoos, some opera explained their meaning. They say things. Tattoos are my hobby.

– You just have specific tattoos.

- Normal tattoos.

– “I will never kneel” – also non-specific?

- Heh, it’s like reflectors on a bicycle - so that they can be seen from afar.

- Well, what about “If you follow the truth, you’ll wear yourself down to your ass”?

– I say it again: a hobby.

– Why did you choose these inscriptions and drawings?

- I liked it. My neighbor in Oskol was a long-time ringer. That's all.

“Didn’t he say that such stars can only be pinned if you are a thief?”

- Where did you see my stars?

- I don’t see it now. Because in their place there are clouds.

- Heh, no, I didn’t. He made me feel like a carbon copy of himself. I liked what was on it, and I said: “Prick me too.” Such stars are not only thieves.

– So why did Alexey Maly decide to talk about prison?

– You need to ask him that. He is not telling the truth.

– Do you regret at least one of the tattoos you got in your youth?

– Why did you kill those same stars then?

– Because young people have the wrong understanding. They look, go on the Internet and begin, roughly speaking, to cheat. They have a misunderstanding.

I need money from me

- In the summer, you got into another story - some young ladies filed a report against you to the police. What happened there?

- We came to visit. They left and called the police. I go out - what happened? They said they needed money from me. It was a mistake that I brought them home.

“Your press agent then said: “Let’s face it, these girls are prostitutes who, in addition to paying for their usual services, wanted to use Alexander’s name and, through blackmail, lure more money out of him.” What, they really were prostitutes?

- I don't know who they were. Why she said that, I don’t know.

– When did your first marriage break up?

- For a long time. Did not get along. We decided to go our separate ways.

– How often do you see your daughter?

- Very rarely. She lives outside the city. She goes to kindergarten and has a lot of different things to do.

About nothing

- What are you dreaming about?

- Nothing.

- How can you not dream of anything?

- I dream about children. So that my beloved gives birth to at least three. Well, plus a couple of million – I dream about them too.

- Millions of dollars?

- Certainly. You can’t live on rubles now.

– God willing, you will have a son, he will grow up, come across a selection of news about you for 2013 and ask: “Wow! Dad, did you really do all this?” What is your answer?

– I’ll say: “No.” Gossips" (laughs).

- Do you think he will believe it?

- Of course, he will believe it. How can you not believe me? (laughs)

Sports journalist, TV presenter, video blogger. Editor-in-Chief of Sports.ru.

YURIY DUD ABOUT HIMSELF

I have been wandering by profession for more than half my life. At the age of 11 he wrote his first article, at 13 he received his first money for it, at 19 he worked at the Olympics and the World Football Championship, at 24 he became the editor-in-chief of Russia's largest sports website "Sports.ru". You can read me there regularly even now.

I am a purebred Ukrainian, but I don’t eat lard or salads stuffed with mayonnaise. I’ve been living in Russia since I was four years old, I feel Russian and, unlike most people my age, I don’t dream of escaping the country. The country has yet to prove that I am not too naive.

I'm a punk. I love fast and heavy guitars, I go to Europe on tour with Goldfinger and Ska-P, every morning I blow up my hair with a couple of grams of styling products, and I consider Converse sneakers best shoes in the world.

I'm impatient, and that's why I love the Moscow metro. I admire the endurance of those who move around paralyzed Moscow by car.

I greatly surprised the young ladies from the HR department of the company where I joined a couple of years ago. In the duty questionnaire, which they had to throw out on the internal website, there was an item “Your motto.”

My motto did not pass their censorship. “It’s not scary to make mistakes, but it’s scary to be a sad s***” - in accordance with this simple rule I try to work and live.

I don't like it when people say the word "I" so often.

BIOGRAPHY

Yuri Dud became interested in football as a child and dreamed of becoming a goalkeeper. But it didn’t work out to become a professional athlete - my health failed. Then I decided to take up journalism. From the age of 11 he wrote notes for the Youthful Life newspaper, and at 13 he got an internship at the Segodnya newspaper.

Since 2001, he worked for the Izvestia newspaper as a freelance correspondent. At the age of 16 he was admitted to the staff. Then he entered the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University, from which he graduated in 2008.

In 2007, he worked in the magazine "PROsport", then in the sports editorial office of "NTV-plus".

Since 2011 - editor-in-chief of Sports.ru.

In 2011 - 2013, Yuri Dud hosted a show on the Rossiya 2 TV channel. From the very beginning, the transfer caused a lot of controversy. Not only football experts came to the studio, but also beautiful girls: girlfriends of football players, fans of the game, channel hosts. The hottest topics were discussed. , - said the presenter at the beginning of each episode.

In 2015 - 2017 he made the show "KultTura" for the TV channel "MatchTV". The program became the calling card of the channel, and Yuri Dud and his co-host Evgeny Savin received the GQ “Person of the Year 2016” award in the “Face from TV” category.

A year later, Yuri repeated this success alone - he is again “The Face from the Screen” according to GQ.

In 2017, he started the “VDud” channel on YouTube. According to Yuri, his main goal was to hone his interview skills not about sports. The first guests were rappers Basta, L’One and Guf, leader of the Leningrad group Sergei Shnurov, producer Maxim Fadeev. The musical intro for the blog was recorded by members of the hip-hop group "Khleb". As a result, the success exceeded all expectations: in two months the channel gained more than 600 thousand subscribers and almost 20 million views.

In May 2017, RBC included Yuri Dud in the list of 20 young and promising “heroes of tomorrow.”

Recognized as one of the best young media managers in Russia based on the results of 2016 (annual rating of the Odgers Berndston company).

PERSONAL LIFE

Yuri Dud does not advertise his personal life on principle. We only know that he is married and has two children.

INTERVIEW

What football taught me:

“Although in the Russian football there is crap like in the bio-toilets at Nashestviya, football itself for me remains a world where there is much more justice than in life. If you work hard, you get what you deserve. If you relax, you also get it. The connection may not necessarily be simple and obvious: if you get drunk - you start to play worse. The connection may be more complicated, but it’s still fair: you achieve something, relax, start to treat things worse - and oops, out of the blue, you turn your knee the wrong way, tear the ligaments and be out for a year "Total justice does not exist anywhere, but in football, it seems, there is still a little more of it than in life."

About working on TV:

“You have a challenge - to make sure it doesn’t get boring. In front of you is an opponent called a rotten guy, your task is to kick this rotten guy in the ass. It’s always adrenaline, the risk is worse than when you’re accelerating on a snowboard.”

On pessimism:

“Before important matches, everyone tries to put on a good face, but I always say that ours will lose, and I’m very happy when they win.”

About questions about money:

“It’s not customary to talk about this topic in Russia, so it’s interesting to me. My goal is to make it interesting for viewers or users. Give them something new. People in Russian football are not used to talking about money, but I want them to get used to it.”

What you need for a successful interview:

"You have to be dead to do this. I've been taught that in order to achieve excellence in your craft, you must always be dissatisfied with what you're doing right now. And that's why in all interviews, even those that resonated with three thousand torn farts, I always I see moments that I didn’t tighten up. Where I didn’t ask something. Where I conveyed the intonation incorrectly. Where I didn’t reduce the overall volume. That’s why I’m always dissatisfied.”

About the main task:

“I carry this with me as a kind of mission for life: when my children are teenagers, I want to be modern, young, look good and hang out with them. If now we fly to Ibiza together, then in 15 years I would like to do it with four people .And not just warm your bones in the sun, but go to the same “Space”, “Amnesia” and “Ibiza Rocks” and still dance to drum, dancehall and even house. So that my children are not embarrassed by me, and I wasn’t embarrassed by them. In our country, this is not accepted. But if there should be some meaning in life, then I have it now—that’s exactly what it is.”

Based on materials from the sites rbc.ru, sports.ru, the-flow.ru, ru.wikipedia.org, momenty.org, 2.site, gq.ru, sovsport.ru, youtube.com, lenta.ru, youngmediaman.ru , secretmag.ru.

He noted that real success will be achieved by those who put 99% of their sweat into 1% of inspiration. This statement is ideal to characterize the life path and career of Yuri Dud.


The future sports columnist and blogger was born on October 11, 1986. This happened in the city of Postdam, which at that moment was part of East Germany. The boy's parents came from Ukraine. Immediately after the birth of their son, they returned to their homeland so that Yura could receive Ukrainian citizenship.


“I am a purebred Ukrainian,” Dud says about this, but immediately adds that he does not like lard and salads dressed with mayonnaise - he prefers healthy food.

When Yuri turns 4 years old, his family moves again - this time to Moscow. The boy goes to study at a regular metropolitan school No. 1246. Even in elementary school, the boy became interested in football and even thought about a professional career as a goalkeeper. But due to health problems - Yuri was diagnosed with bronchial asthma - this idea had to be abandoned. But Dud did not give up his love of football.




In 1997, the boy decides to write a sports article, which, to his surprise, is published in the Youth Newspaper. This event inspires Yuri, and he begins to send his articles to other periodicals (mainly sports).

In 1999, he received his first fee and entered into internship at the publishing house of the Segodnya newspaper. A year later, Yuri is listed as a freelancer for another publication, Izvestia. In 2002, Dud was already officially enrolled in the newspaper staff. In 2004, he visited the Summer Olympic Games in Greece as a reporter, and a year later Yuri worked as a sports commentator at the FIFA World Cup.

After school, the talented guy decides to enter the Faculty of Journalism at Moscow State University, graduating in 2008. Later Dud will say that higher education(at least for journalists) is a formality. According to Yuri, the most useful skill acquired while studying at Moscow State University is knowledge of a foreign language.

Journalism

A year before graduation, the guy gets a job in the editorial office of PROSport magazine. The real rise of the sports commentator's career begins in 2011. It was this year that Yuri first became an employee of the NTV-plus sports department, then hosted a program on the Moscow information radio station City-FM, and then appeared on TV. Dudya’s first television project was the program “Head Blow” on the Rossiya-2 channel. “This program is not about football, but about life,” the presenter declared at the beginning of each episode.




The last release of the program was released in 2013. Until 2015, Yuri collaborated with various sports media as an independent journalist. Then he tries himself as an event host, and he succeeds. The list of companies with which Yuri has collaborated includes giants such as the Scottish whiskey producer William Lawsons, the QuikSilver company, which produces fashion accessories, clothing and shoes, as well as Hugo Boss, Nike and Adidas.




In 2015, Dud returned to TV screens to start hosting the “Cult of the Tour” program, broadcast by the Match TV channel. In January 2017, the channel lost its sponsor. The project is being closed. Today, Yuri’s journalistic activity is focused on the sports portal “Sports.ru”, of which he is the editor-in-chief.

Blog

After the closure of the “Cult Tour” program, Dud decides to master a new platform for himself - YouTube video hosting. The goal of the new project, which Yuri calls “vDud” after himself, is to hone his skills in interviewing people not associated with the world of sports. The first episode of the program was released in February 2017. Rapper Vasily Vakulenko aka appeared as a guest of the premiere episode.

The following issues featured musicians, Vladi from “Casta”, and. Also among the guests one could see politicians, directors, actors, entrepreneurs and Chichvarkin.




As well as TV and Internet figures, Restaurateur and Zhenya BadComedian. Dud did not expect the show to take off, but when asked about the reasons for its success, he replied:

“An interview is an abundance of emotions, facts and everything else. Previously, the YouTube audience thought that this was the most routine ritual genre. Therefore, for local viewers this is at least unusual.”

Before the appearance of sponsors in the person of “Aviasales” (and later in other “persons”), Yuri filmed episodes at his own expense, and the show team, which included his colleague from “Cult Tour” Artem Nechaev, helped almost free of charge.




“It’s not customary to talk about money in Russia, that’s why I’m interested,” says Yuri.

These tricks served as the basis for numerous memes and parodies, which Dud does not regret at all - rather, quite the contrary. However, if Dud had a choice - to remain as editor-in-chief of Sports.ru or to finally move to the VDud channel, Yuri would prefer to remain on the sports portal.

Personal life

Yuri prefers not to talk about his personal life. According to information leaked to the Internet, it is known that Yuri’s family consists of his wife Olga, son Danila and daughter Alena. It was the children who caused tattoos with their names to appear on Yuri’s hands.




Dud dreams that when the children grow up, he will be able to go with them to Ibiza or to concerts of his favorite performers, but for now he does this in the company of his wife, who is also present on the set of some of Yuri’s videos.

Yuri Dud now




On September 9, 2017, he received the YouTube “Golden Button”. Dud posted a photo and a post about this event on his pages in

Journalist Yuri Dudu gained national fame after he started running his YouTube channel called "vDud". In addition, he is the editor-in-chief of the portal Sports.ru. The hero of this story can be called a charismatic personality who was able to reformat the hackneyed journalistic genre of interviews and make it more intriguing.

A hard worker from a young age. Biography

The popular video blogger was born on October 11, 1986 in Potsdam (GDR). Yuri is Ukrainian by nationality, but considers himself Russian, both in his passport and in spirit. According to the journalist, he has no plans to leave the country.

Dud grew up in a poor family. From an early age, he was engaged in writing notes, which were published in various publications, including the Youth Newspaper. As a high school student, he got a job at the Izvestia newspaper (see).

After school, Yuri studied at the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University, graduating in 2008. During his student years, Dud was a correspondent for:

• radio "City-FM";
• NTV channel;
• edition "Today".

Path to glory

In 2008, when Yuri was eighteen years old, he went to the Summer Olympics in Athens, from where he sent reports for domestic publications. In 2007, Dud joined the staff of the monthly glossy magazine "PROsport". In the period 2011-2013 he was the host of a television program about football "Headbutt", which aired on Rossiya 2. “The most daring and stylish program about sports” - that’s what the program with Dud’s participation was called at that time. In 2013, the directors of the TV channel decided to cease its existence. According to Yuri, this was due to the cessation of broadcasts of major football tournaments on Rossiya 2.

1. As a child, Dudya was diagnosed with chronic bronchial asthma, due to which he gave up his dreams of professional football.
2. In most cases, Yuri travels around Moscow by metro.
3. In May 2017, Dud starred in the role of Cameo in Vasya Oblomov’s video, where he played himself.

In 2011, when the program was still airing, 24-year-old Dudya was appointed to the position of editor-in-chief of the Sports.ru website.

Immediately after the New Year of 2014, Yuri registered his own channel on YouTube, to which he gave the laconic name “vDud”, but the premiere of his original program took place only three years later. The first guest was the famous Russian rapper Basta (Vasily Vakulenko). Viewers immediately remembered the original jingle of the program “Yuri will be Dud.” On the first day after the release of the interview with Basta, 100 thousand people watched it. Dudya's channel gained its first million views in a very short time.

In 2015, Yuri began hosting the “Cult Tour” program on the Match TV channel. He interviewed ardent football fan Mikhail Boyarsky, football players Vasily Berezutsky and Fedor Smolov, as well as Russian national team coach Leonid Slutsky.

A year later, Dud and football player Evgeny Savin, who hosted this program with him, were awarded a prize "Person of the Year" edition of “GQ” as the main “Faces from TV” (see). In 2017, the program's sponsor stopped funding it and it ceased to exist.

Family, hobbies and goals of Yuri Dud



Dudya has a wife and two children. He loves ska-punk and is a fan of the following bands:

• "Ska-P";
• "Goldfinger"

The “vDud” project, according to its creator, has as its main goal the reformatting of the interview genre from a boring conversation with a famous person into an exciting and sometimes shocking show not related to sports.

Despite his popularity on the Internet, Yuri did not quit working as editor-in-chief of the Sports.ru website. This activity is his priority.

Among famous people, whom he interviewed as part of the “vDud” project were:

1. Oppositionist;
2. Journalist Vladimir Pozner;
3. LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky;
4. Film director Yuri Bykov;
5. Journalist Leonid Parfenov;
6. Showman Garik Martirosyan;
7. Producer Alexander Rodnyansky;
8. Businessman and oppositionist Mikhail Khodorkovsky and many other iconic personalities.

Why did the “Vdud” project become so popular? Expert opinions

Grushevsky Stanislav, analyst at the Smimonitor center

The very format in which Yuri Dud works arouses interest not only among ordinary viewers, but also among journalists, who often look at this kind of interview as a source of news.

This works like a snowball: interviews become the reason for news in the media, which in turn expands the popularity and increases views of the interview itself, attracting additional audience and attention to it.

And this season, the materials on the Vdud channel aroused interest among their fellow journalists much more often. Just one interview with Yuri Dud became the source of information for 154 materials in federal and large regional media, which literally snapped him up for quotes. The releases with Maxim Fadeev and were also successful in this regard.

But the “Posner” program, with which “Vdud” is often compared, was practically not discussed this season after the programs were released. Despite the fact that last season there were very resonant interviews, for example, which became the information reason for more than 330 publications in the press.
